Title: PUBLISH 1 FINAL 6/21/2010
Post by: Gizmo on June 20, 2010, 09:56:36 PM
I am glad to present the first publish update of many to come. This one may or may not cover the present features/missing content you are looking for. But I hope that most of these updates cover at least 1 thing for everybody. Though you see the list below of all the updates that relate to your general game player. There where many updates that you wont read about. These are just general changes and fixes to systems where parts where broken, or tools that help the staff manage the server. With this said here is a list of all the changes you can expect come tomorrow.


HotFix
 -- Cleaned up a issue with the ResourceBox crashing the server.

Items
 -- Slayer spellbooks now invoke their extra damage vs Mobiles on the according slayer
    list.
 -- The Blessed Reg And Bandage Bag now can hold Bones.
 -- MischiefMaker now has its proper slayer of undead, and fixed durability.
 -- Updated the Taming Bulk Order book, found the location in which the crash
    keeps happening. I removed the Set My Filter option. So you can still serach
    and do everything else with the book. I will get around to getting this
    button back (rarely used by players anyways) So you guys can have your books
    to help keep track of your Taming Bods.

Major Systems
 -- Updated the treasure of tokuno system. You can now only attain points
    in the Dojo and Mine area.
 -- There has also been an exception added for attaing ToTs for the PVM players.
    You can now farm for ToTs in the Tokuno land mass on Tuesdays, but the chances
    are slightly reduced, making the mines and dojo the premium area to hunt. So
    if it is Tuesday server time, you can attain ToTs in the Tokuno land mass.
 -- In almost all event regions, players will no longer loose insurance money for
    dieing. Some may shut this feature off.
 -- When you die, and get resurrected, you will no longer recieve the equipped
    death robe.

Dungeons & Caves
 -- Updated the new player dungeon, you can only access it now if your account is
    less then 21 days old. New players will have 3 weeks of free, hassle free time.
 -- Go ahead and remark your runes, because recalling in, gating in, or just walking
    in teleport you somewhere else.

Greater Risk System
 -- We are currently putting into place several systems to help balance out the rewards
    for hunting in PvP areas vs PvM areas. This will include a 25% gold drop bonus in
    PvP Facets vs PvM Facets. PvM Facet areas will be subjected to a small loss in the
    amount of gold attained, but nothing drastic.
 -- Updated the amount of Hides, Wool, Feathers, Logs, Ore you get from the other two
    Felucca Based Facets. This includes Malas and Ilshenar.

Client Updates
  -- You will be able to access and use the Bandage features in the clients Macro system.
  -- Covers Bandage Self
  -- Covers Bandage Target
  -- Basically you set it up with a Hot Key of choice (F7,1,Q,ALT+F4) hehe

Crafting
  -- Pendant of the Magi, Essence of Battle and Resilient Bracer all now have a base
     50% chance of being craftable at 100 skill.
  -- Gargoyles now have their extra 5% bonus to crafting.

Accounting
  -- Accounts will now be dropped off after 60 days of not logging into the server.
  -- Donators will get a 365 day extention, after 365 days they will loose all houseing
     but keep there characters and their bank accounts.

NPCS
  -- Greater Dragon received a cosmetic upgrade, (we got out the dragon wax)
